Why are the Right Wing Talking Heads Pro-Hillary?

[tabasco]

Is it just me, or is almost every right wing pundit backing Hillary and encouraging her to stay in the race? And failing her getting the nomination, why do they unanimously back her for VP? I find it interesting. Pat Buchanan is on MSNBC right now, as he is every day, bloviating about how she should stay in, she has a chance, it's her right, she's the best, blah, blah. Tucker Carlson, the baby-faced O'Reilly wannabe, is doing exactly the same thing as well as Michael Smerconish. ...

I'm sure they are licking their chops to have another 6 months of ripping up the Clintons and the noise machine is in full screech trying to make that happen.

1. They know she's an easier opponent for McCain.

And they need to weaken Obama.

[NotThisTime]

2. Exactly...

[AZBlue]

3. They know that if she's on the ballot, they have a chance of winning.

Only Hillary can bring down the Dems and they are pushing hard for that. Just look at "Operation Chaos."

[greguganus]

4. Because she's repub lite. n/t

[RC]

6. Bingo, as in DINO.

5. You know why I think that is?

They prefer that she be the nominee because they would be able to say any and everything about her and get away with it. If Obama is the nominee, they would have to stifle what they would really want to say about him or they would have to do one of those whisper campaigns.

7. Hillary has the Neocons singing her praises...

The Godfather of the neocons--Bill Kristol--couldn't say enough nice things about Hillary, or bash
Obama enough.

Karl Rove sat down with Bill Clinton and helped the Clinton team strategize on this election. Bill
asked for Rove's help.

Rush Limbaugh's "Operation Chaos"---do we really think that was about causing chaos in the Dem party?
Come on...

The neocons on the right and the neocons on the left---want a neocon on both sides of the ticket--thus
assuring that their PNAC plans are continued.

They've stated their goals...Iraq first, then Iran, then Syria. They've done the hard work. They
have their foot in the region. A non-neocon will dismantle their agenda.

Let's not be in denial about this anymore. The Clintons were folded into the neocon fray long ago.

The neocons asked Bill Clinton for war with Iraq in 1998. They wrote him a letter, which was signed
by Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perl and Kristol. Clinton rebuffed their suggestions. Fast forward to
Hillary's "YES" vote on the Iraq war. She knew damn well the neocons had been shopping around the
Iraq war for years--just waiting for an open door--because they asked her husband for it!!!

(Here's the copy of the 1998 letter from the neocons to then-President Clinton http://www.newamericancentury.org/iraqclintonletter.htm )

The neocons got their open door with Sept 11. They rode that wave of fear right into Iraq. Please don't
tell me that Hillary didn't know. It's just not possible.

She's a neocon...that's the answer to your question.
